I just checked out your link - it was for an old Foes F1 fork with 6 inches of travel. Given that the frame has 10 ins on the back, it would be unbalanced. I think the Fox 40 is a better match!

Average price £2,699 new, frame only. Fully built up you're looking at £4-5,000

This is far from the best looking bike, but engineering wise its mind blowing. That rear shock is quite something else! ...I didn't realise just how high the BB is on this frame!!! Its nearly 75% the height of the wheels!!! Crazy machine.

hi foes make the best bikes .i have a foes fxr brill allrounder bike .how you getting on with the currnutt shock.??? my currnutt shock. seems to run to much sag
Warwikc replied... on 5 October 2009
If you've got the air Curnutt, just pump it up a bit more (or if it's coil change the spring). I had problems with bottoming-out and then found out that I'd been running the pressure far too low for my weight. They're very adjustable, I find

stunning bike mate. ive just been offered a swap for a 2006 foes mono dhs (the one with the vertical shock) for my scott, would you say i should go for it.. i ride mainly dh and free ride.
t3rribl3on3 replied... on 24 August 2009
got it on sat :D
t3rribl3on3 replied... on 19 August 2009
ive talked myself in to it, getting it on saturday :D here is a pic of it http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/3864935/ i will take all the stickers off etc apart from the foes ones
Warwikc replied... on 19 August 2009
Difficult to say - the Scott is a good all-round freeride bike but the DHS Mono is a big-hit downhill bike. I've not ridden the 2006 model but I did have a 2006 Foes Fly which was brilliant in the woods and on downhill tracks, but you wouldn't have enjoyed riding it any distance on the road. If I were you,and with the sort of riding you do, I'd be tempted by the Foes, though - it's a serious bit of kit and quite a rare one

i was going to give this a low score when i first clicked, but readin the components it should run like the nuts.
Never heard of Foes before though - off to google to research.
Sweet set up

Awesome bike mate! I've heard people say that they are too much for the UK but I'd rather have it and not need it than not have it at all. And on the Alps Whistler trips these beasts really come into their own. A 10 everyday of the week!!!

If you were to buy one new the frame would cost £2,849. Crazy money! But as I say, I got mine second-hand on Ebay

I got the frame, wheels and seatpost for £1650 off Ebay - I had to buy new cranks and rear mech: the rest I swapped off of my old bike

my buds got one, but with the coil rear and Curnutt forks on it. And just who the hell builds a Foes for comfort? You build it to nail the trail man.

Er.. it's a downhill race bike.
It's not really meant to be comfy.
I don't know how much you know about downhill, but these kinds of bikes are meant for the sort of run, like at Fort William, where you take the cable car up to the top of the mountain and then roll very fast all the way to the bottom over rocks and jumps for a run that will take you somewhere between 6 and 8 minutes. And then you take the cable car back up again.
You aren't going to be doing all-day cross-country treks on it or anything like that.
